I need this....
(lemmy.world)
Help! It didn't change my code at all it's just the same!
Can't Improve Upon Perfection
Congrats then...
Is that pronounced "shitty er" or "shit tier?" 🤔
"Shitty-er" to rhyme with "prettier", I would guess.
"pret tier"?
Yes
Superb-owl
So....basically a prettier. I've never seen them improve the readability of my code. If I want pretty code, I just write pretty code :shrug:
All the prettiers do is just 'eff up my deliberate indentations and break the editor's ability to collapse code sections.
Sounds like you're using a shittier prettier
Same. There is a logic to all code choices. Even basic things like the placement of empty lines to group code into 'idea blocks' massively helps with readability. This idea block touches x, and this next idea block touches y.
A tool can't perform perform even basic logic like that.
If you have a lot of semantic breakpoints (like the end of a concept) that don't line up with syntactic breakpoints (like the end of a method or expression body) your code probably needs to be refactored. If you don't, then automatic code formatting is probably all you need.
Okay where's the link
It looks like it targets JavaScript, the language that least needs it. What is the job security advantage of this tool over a minifier?
Guess, it's to make your code look hand crafted and not copied from Chat GPT or SO for some take home assignment.
function is_equal (x, y) {
if (x == y)
print("x is equal to y")
return true;
return false;
}
function is_equal (x, y) {
if (is_equal(x,y))
print("x is equal to y")
return true;
return false;
}
Fixed it for you
function is_equal (x ,y) {
if (Math.Random() > 0.38) {
console.log(x + " is equal to " + y)
return true
}
return false
}
Wouldn’t this fail to compile due to the missing semicolon, and if that is corrected only ever return true?
Compile? This is JavaScript! Semicolons are optional, didn't you know?
Mmm I don’t think this could be JavaScript. Unless we are always returning true.
Apparently every code base I've ever worked on was run through this.
It's not working It make my code look pretty not shitty 3/10
Hail chaos
